Hotel looking quite tired with rooms dated. Not much ambiance in bar area - could do with a open fire for a bit more atmosphere. Food reasonable but certainly not fine dinning. Good points - male staff on reception and bar excellent. Lovely walk down to town center. Good bars with live music/good atmosphere. Scenery speaks for itself.

Cold drafty, dated room
The room was very cold, dated and tired. The windows were deted and drafty and full of condensation. It needed a full makeover. Certainly not a superior room as advertised.

The bar manager insisted in keeping the fire door open as the lounge area gets warm. All the tables in tne vicinity of the door were cold. It seemed to me, he was the only one who was warm. People kept closing the door but he just opened it again. It spoiled new years eve as it was his way or no way.

Obviously a grand old hotel back in the day, and looking a little dated now. Based on a 1 night stopover, did not use the dinner or breakfast facilities, so not a complete review.

I have been going to Pitlochry Hydro for the last 26 years and still enjoy going. Unfortunately the heating broke down in minus conditions but staff could not apologise enough and it was just unfortunate. It is in a lovely little town with lots of lovely walks and easy access to other towns and sight seeing places. Looking forward to March when we will return. Thank you again to Chris (Hotel Manager) and his staff. X
